I do know the value of them as tools for herding cattle and protecting livestock not as house pets…. lol they're bread for tasks 

Girl I was drying everyone morning watching my golden retriever run after our cows. 
 

My. Puss Puss could never 

 

and the fact that the cows actually got in formation. The funniest thing ever.

It's what gives the herding dogs joy. It's so bizarre to watch them get instinctually activated. I had a wiener dog and it would dig holes all over my yard looking for whatever rats or moles were digging around there. So cool.

 

but again… it's not for me, I'm not a farm boy, and I don't want something I have to train the instincts out of to live in my small apartment.

 

and I have a hairless cat that's insane and so fun and is just as friendly as a dog

I understand lol. I wasn't raised on a farm but in my sugar baby era I would constantly go to one and I was so enamoured. 
 

ugh nothing like waking up and getting fresh laid eggs and everything u eat came from ur land. I finally understood what Scarlett Ohara daddy  meant when he said that land is the most important thing lmao

Cats that are large enough literally eat people. Sorry to hear though, I have a scar from a dog attack.

You mean a tiger…

 

More people die from dog attacks than cats.

There are a lot more large enough to kill a person dogs living in proximity of humans than there are cats large enough. House cats are predators too they just aren't large enough to get large prey, there's a very specific reason we don't have labrador-sized pet cats.

Cats are much more work than expected. Ppl say they are easy animals to take care of but that's not true. In fact sometimes they are worst than dogs. 
 

I just got two cats last month & they ate a hand full. 

[Aston Martin]

I love both, but I've only had experience living with my (current) cat.

Just say you hate cats and go. 

[DevilsRollTheDice]

Cats outsold, outstreamed, outsang, and out-impacted. 
 

I don't necessarily have anything against dogs. I think they're smelly and needy but are also cute. However, dog culture is wildly out of control and makes me dislike them. I run on trails and people ignore all the leash restrictions which leads to muddy dogs jumping all over me. That's just the tip of the iceberg. People feel entitled to take their dogs into every public space. Not to mention that dogs kill more humans every year than nearly any other animal. If people tended their dogs properly and kept them in their own space I'd like them more.

I don't, both are excellent pets, but pretending that dogs are murder machines when cats literally hunt any animal they can successfully kill is wild.

i do prefer felines 

[playboi]

dogs are disgusting and ugly

 

cats all the way

[Batsy Armada]

I feel like dogs are more joyous and friendly than cats are. I still do like cats, though!

[Suilen]

I prefer cats and don't mind smaller dogs. A dog bit me when I was a child, so I always feel jittery around big ones.

[abelfenty]

Dogs easily, especially big ones

[Orsay]

Cats >

 

honestly cats are already needy enough emotionally, at least all the cats I've had. The stereotype that they hate humans isn't true (if you're a good owner oop!); they're just divas and won't grovel for you the way dogs do

 

dogs are sweet but it's too much for me

[EtherealCat]

i think i have to go for cats because there arent any satanist cats

[Pop Life]

There's something very suspicious about a person that hates cats. It immediately tells me they're someone who doesn't respect boundaries or understand consent

imo not liking cats is a much bigger red flag. in my experience it's always people who don't understand boundaries and consent.
